Five of my favorites but maybe not THE top five:
Queen - Toronto 1982
Grateful Dead - Toronto 1987
Brian May (opening for GNR and also on his own) - Hamilton and Toronto 1993
The Kinks - Toronto 1983
Dave Matthews Band - Toronto - 2004
Not necessarily my favorites...
I have also seen Pink Floyd (not with Waters) , The Stones , Supertramp and The Eagles among about 200 shows. I saw Peter Gabriel twice on the "So" tour and one time was one of my favorite shows , the second time 6 months later one of my worst.
I saw Fleetwood Mac in the early 90's one of the times they were disinegrating and they were pretty bad.
I could name other great ones and crappy ones ... maybe later!

Oh Janet you saw ELO!! Awesome!!
Janet, do you know if the Trans-Siberian Orchestra are touring now? I saw that my sister got a notice from ticketmaster.com saying they were touring - I thought you might be interested to know, just in case you would want to check it out!
Oh, and Savannah, sure I'd love to see the pics!!
Already got tickets for Dec 11th, Alistair! ;-)
...okay, too swift for me! LOL
1. Brian May, 1998
2. Rush, Sept. 2004
3. Yes, 1996 (?)
Brian is obvious, but I must say Rush last month was something to remember for me. Another dream went true. And Yes, well, fantastic sound, amazing music and great Steve Howe.

Bullwinkle in Toronto 1981 at the Police Picnic Joan Jett had tomatoes thrown at her!!
When I saw Joan Jett she was the opening act for the Police, and her show was full of energy and vibe - perfectly setting setting the stage for the Police.
